In 1993 I was conficted of fraud,felonypetty theft,and being under the influence.I was given a 3 year 8 month joint suspended sentence but because it was the first time I had been in trouble I got to do a year in county jail. I got in a fender bender today and the cop ran my name and told me to get out of the car because I was being arrested for a felony warrant. I tried to tell them that the charges they were claiming were old stuff I had done time on. But ya know how they listen to ya WHEN YOU’RE UNDER ARREST. You are pond scum. Frog shit between their toes. EHH I guess they aren’t all that bad. I have to go to court aug 28.i’m scared to death their gonna put me in jail for something I already did time on . Thanks to all of you that take the time to answer my question. OH ! If I haven’t said it, I am the patient advocate at the Methadone clinic. I was running the “Keys to Recovery” substance abuse group for people that were sentenced to put so many hours in.a big mess.HELP!
